BERLIN, June . Looking fur more at
tractive than in any of her pictures the
; Duchess Cecilia of Mecklenburg-Schwerin
' drove publicly Into this city today. Hun
'drede of thousands of her future subjects
saw her for the first time and they re
ceived her according to a carefully wrought

not only the betrothed wife of the crown
prlnca but hla sweetheart. Aa the chief
burgomaster said In welcoming her, the
people of the city hoped her life would be
. rose-strewn, aa was the pavement over
which the drove.
The crown prince who, Mllowtn tradi
tion, led his company of foot guards over
the route of procession an hour before the
duchess entered the city, was also splen
didly received. He acknowledged the Cheer
ing by saluting with Ills aword at every
second step.
tThe Duuhess Cecilia of Mecklenburg
Sonerwln, who, In her full title, 1 also
prtooses of the Wends, arrived from
Bchwerln at noon with her mother, the
Grand Duchess Anastasla, her brother,
Frederick Francis, the reigning grand duke
of Mecklenburg-Bchwertn, his wife and a
numerous following. The emperor, empress
and crown prince, the later'a five brothers
and the .little Princess Victoria, met the
party at the railroad station and break
fasted with them In the Chateau Bellevue,
situated In the garden about two miles
from the Imperial palace. There 'the
Ducheaa Cecilia rest-id with the empress,
while the others went to the palace.
The procession began to form between 4
and 5 o'clock in the afternoon on the wide
space fronting the chateau, and then
moved Through the Tiergarten to the
Bradenburger gate, the boundary of the
Id 'dir.
Rides In Old Coach.
,,The richly gilded carriage in which the
i duchess sat composedly, although fiushea
'with the emotions of the hour, was an odd
: looking piece of workmanship, new In the
"year 1798, when the future Queen Loulau
!of Prussia, then a girl of 17, made her
state entry into the city through the same
igate.
j In advance of the equipage walked two
lau grooms in Blue and gold, and beside
&ach of the elarht blnelr hnrA w.ai a.
TOom in scarlet and erolrt liverv. Th hir.
i horses' heads were plumes of black and
I white ostrich feathers. Altogether, the ob--ervera
of the royal luxury and display
' were satisfied. On the right of the duch
f. ess' carriage rode the master of the horse,
' Count yon Wedel, . and on the left the
governor c Berlin, General von Sahnke.
j. In two other six-horse carriages were
the ladles in waiting of the empress ana
i te duchess.
, The course of the procession lay for
mile through the Tiergarten. Where the
ads crossed there were 400 children who
jeang a choral, "God Greet Thee." Their
voices sounded sweetly In the woods.
't Along each side of the way veterans
f'were lined up, while here and there stands
were erected under the shade of the trees.
'Vhen Insldethe Brandenburger gate the
ducheaa came In view of one of the broad -
est avenues In the world, TJnter den Linden,
J set from one end to the other with four
rows of Venetian masts. Swinging from
. mast to mast were ropes of evergreens
and roses, while the lime trees were also
. hung with garlands of roses. Numerous
. flag fluttered on each side of the avenue,
(Mecklenberg's red, yellow and blue pre
dominating. The perspective from the
, arohed gate to the palace at the other end
was moat beautiful.
Burgomaster's Welcome Brief.
The chief burgomaster, in a purple robe
' trimmed Vlth fur and wearing the heavy
gold chain Insignia of his office, stepped
forward and read a brief address of wel
eome. It was brief by the emperor's re-
quest, so as to spare the duchess the or-
ipie words and the r recession hnu n
move again, the artillery at the other end
ef TTnter den Linden firing twenty-four
gtrne. Fifty little girls threw fresh roses
under the horses' feet as the duchess went
on her way down the alley of lime trees,
which, were hung with roses and masses of
people, covering even roofs, waving tiny
flags and handkerchiefs and cheering. .

Large parties of Americans occupied

Of "Romeo and Juliet." which was pre
sented to a matinee audience much larger
than tho torrid heat of the afternoon
seemed to warrant, only words of com
mendation may be written. Miss Marlowe
Is a more mature, but none the less charm
ing Juliet now than when we firs: came to
know her as the very embodiment i f the
charms and graces of the fair dn-iv.ter of
the Capulets. She Is more attractive, per
haps, as she is, even though the winsome
nesa of youth be lost to some degree in
the seductive plumpness of the riper form;
she still has the sprightly grace and airi
ness of manner and movement, and her
voice haa all the music In it that could
ravish and captivate a less willing sub
ject than young Montague. In the bal
cony scenes, in the garden, in her cham
ber, at the tomb, she is Juliet, Just as the
eye of fancy has pictured her, and no more,
Miss Marlowe found the heat of the after
noon very trying, and yet she sustained
her efforts to the very close of the In
tensely dramatic climax.
Mr. Sothern haa not altogether succeeded
in his redemption of Romeo from the sec
ondary value to which the role has been
assigned, and yet he has gone a long ways
toward restoring him to his proper place
as a hero. He makes him a very manly
young man, even when he is most sorely
tried, and shows little of that lugubrious
quality for which his lover was condemned
by the critics earlier- in the season. That
he seems to be depressed by some pre
monition of the evil that Is likely to over
whelm him in his fondness for the daugh
ter of his enemy is apparent, and this in
a measure is reflected In his presentation
of the' part; but most does he bend his
effort to making of Romeo a man, and
to this end he gives him sterling qualities
quite at variance with the light and care
less youth most generally depicted as the
ideal of the part. His love making bears
a ring of sincerity, if it does lack in eager
ness, and it may be in this it Is more ac
ceptable. It Is a wise man who can lay
down a hard and fast rule for making love
so as to convince the object of its direc
tion, and Shakespeare showed that a
woman may be wooed in many ways and
won in all. Therefore, why should one
quarrel with Romeo's love making, or
rather Mr. Sothern' way of doing It for
RomeoT He gives It the essential element
of reality, and the rest is a matter of mere
detail. In his encounter with Tybalt he
does very well, in fact, he here reaches
a genuine climax.
Mr. Hunter's Mercutlo, Mr. Crorapton's
Friar Lawrence and Mrs. Smith's nurse are
the other parts of the play worth Individual
mention, although the whole cast is well
selected.
In the evening "Hamlet" was offered to a
small but decidedly appreciative audience,
the heat again having a marked effect on
the attendance. Owing to the fact that the
windows and doors were kept open aa much
as possible, the audience had excellent
proof of the Increased service recently es
tablished on the Harney street trolley line.
It appeared that every Interesting part of
the play had been scheduled for the passing
of a trolley, the gongs of which were not
chimed louder nor longer than discretion
suggested to the motorman, but whos-j
whirring wheels were notably audible for at
least a block on either side of the house.
Such conditions render acting an effort
indeed, and yet Mr. Sothern and his as
sociates made excellent headway against
this opposition. It ia difficult to convince
one who did not see his earlier performance
of the role how far Mr. Sothern haa pro
gressed as Hamlet. His prince Is now a
man of action as well as of thought; he ia
melancholy, consumed with his grief, torn
by his conflict between his doubt and his
desire, but through It all a man of noble
mind and mien. Not alone In appearance
and movement haa he Improved hla Hamlet
but In expression. His voice haa yielded to
hia effort, and Is now under the moat per
fect and absolute control, so that it re
sponds with wonderful flexibility to his de
mands upon It. He has given the role the
deepest and closest study, and Illuminates
it with the light of his rare Intelligence. In
emphasis, Inflection and manner of delivery
he gives to the lines a quality of penetra
tion that carries home the full weight snd
meaning of each word, and makes the utter
ance of each sentence a message pregnant
with thought to the hearer. If it be the
ecstacy of his impatience with those who
seek to play upon him. the earnestness of
his declaration of friendship for Horatio,
the bitterness of his disappointment "iat
leads to his renunciation of Ophelia, or the
poignancy of grief that tears his soul as he
lays before his mother the pictures and
wrings from her the bitter tears of re
pentance, he gives to all such wealth of
meaning and intelligence of utterance as
holds the closest of attention and brings
the spontaneous applause, because he Is
now a convincing as well as a scholarly
Hamlet. In the scene where he withholds
his hand because he would not send the
king's soul unrepentant to the bar of
heaven, he makes a most Impressive figure
for then is Hamlet come to be a man. bent
oa doing a man's work. This follewed by
probably the most dramatic scene of the
wkole piece, that with his mother, in which
both Mr. Sothern and Miss Kruger won a
triumph. The famous soliloquy and the ad
vice to the players are both excellent pieces
or elocutionary effort, and It may be ques
tloned if they were ever better delivered
than last Tilg'ht. AB rn sJL, Mr. Bnihn-B Is
much Dearer his goal as an ax-tor than
three reMon ago, when he first eesared the
role.
Mist Marlowe's Ophelia Is a revelation to
those who have been accustomed to seeing
a moderately capable actress walk through
the role. She endues the pnrt with a dis
tinct and Individual life, and make It one
that appears worthy the effort she bestows
upon It. Always the careful and Intensely
analytical actress, whose nature quickly
responds to her calls upon It, she develops
In Ophelia those subtle beauties of attrac
tive girlhood that are overlooked or illy
set forth by women who have a less In
tuitive perception of the possibilities of the
part. It Is not alone on the mad scene
that Miss Marlowe lays stress, but on the
entire career of Ophelia, and she certainly
shows that her creed is that whatever la
worth doing at all Is worth doing well.
Mr. Hunter's king is good, and Mr.
Crompton makes the meddlesome and gar
rulous Polonius a genuine delight. Mr.
Buckstone Is good as the gravedlgger, and
the rest of the cast Is Just as in the other
plays, splendid.
Shakespeare without scenery may ap
peal to the esoteric cult, but it would be
hard to convince those who sat through
this round of plays that the work would
be Improved and the artistic effect height
ened by the absence of the beautiful and
appropriate settings and accessories pro
vided for the presentation of the plays.
These In thHr way are quite as Important
as any of the other features of the great
success that has been achieved by the
combination, and the thnughtfulness of
the manager who haa so liberally provided
for the proper and effective Investiture of
these great classics Is certainly deserving
of commendation.

men upon their arrival two days sgo waa
heartily repeated this morning as they took
their departure on the yellow and green
special for the Platte valley and Wyom
ing. That their fame had preceded them
was demonstrated by the numbers who
welcomed them at the various towns. Even
In Isolated communities the Inhabitants
were out In full force, and that the South
Omaha boosters maintained their reputa
tion, even in a flying greeting, goes with
out saying.
At this city, the first Important stop, a
procession was formed and headed by the
local band and citizens, a tour of the city
was made. The local preparations were far
beyond expectations even to the disfiguring
of the "south-dale," but through the many
courtesies extended by the Burlington, rep
resented by Trainmaster Ben S. Marvin of
the Sterling division, the matter of Infring
ing on the "south-dale" Is of small moment,
for they, like the people who are receiving
them, openly know there Is nothing too
good for the exchange men.
The run from now on will be through the
world famous Platte valley, the scene of
government operations in which It is ex
pending millions of dollars In reclamation
of semi-arid land along the valley.

THE FOREMAN WINS DERBY
Lamest Crowd E?r at I-atonla Bees
the Bendrl Colt I nil Dm
Rich Stakes.
CIN'CINNATI. O., June . Before the
largest crowd ever seen at the Latonla
race track and in a finish that looked like
a dead heat, The Foieman, a maiden colt
from George Hcndrl's stable, won the
Latonia derby from Hambrlght, carrying
the colors of Talbot Brothers. The first
two finished ten lenghts in front of Mc
Clellan, the 11 to 10 favorite in the race.
The feature of the race was Jockey True
bel's great ride on the winner. There were
five starters. Retort being withdrawn. The
race was at a nillo and a half and of a
net value of $6,850.
Freebooter, representing the stable of Jo
seph Hugh, and well backed, was the pace
maker and looked like a sure winner for
a mile and a quarter. Then he tired and
Truebel, on The Foreman, who had been
holding his mount in reserve, sent The
Foreman to the front. The colt responded
gamely and appeared to be winning at the
last eighth pole when Hambrlght came
from behind and challenged him for the
prize. Then began an exciting struggle. A
few yards from the wire Truebel, with
rare Judgment, sat still on his mount,
while Austin's efforts with the whip pre
vented him from making a strong finish
and as a result The Foreman crossed the
wire a scant nose to the good. For a few
seconds the spectators were held spell
bound until the numbers were hung- out.
When The Foreman was announced as the
winner a mighty cheer rent the air. The
winner was as good as U to 1 in the bet
ting, but was packed down to 6 to 1 at the
clos4. The race was run over a fast track
la 2:38 flat.
The attraction today outside of the Derby
was the presence of Miss Alice Roosevelt.
She was the guest of Congressman Long
worth of Cincinnati, and society turned out
enmasse to greet her. She was among those
who cheered the Derby winner when he
passed the clubhouse encircled in a floral
wreath. Governor Beckham of Kentucky
and his staff, besides many other notables,
were in attendance.
Two favorites won. Twenty-three books
were in line snd all did a good business.

persons. The main event, the five-mile

ering the distance In 4:6V
The fourth event, the flve-mlle, one min
ute class, was productive of considerable
excitement and was won by Charles Boules
with a margin ot but a half-car length
ahead of Dan Canary. The special race
between Coey and Ellis was also exciting,
each driver taking a heat. The third heat
was not run owing to C'oey's machine being
out of order.
Jerry Ellis started from scratch In the
five-mile handicap race, overhauled one of
his opponents who had a mile start and
finished a sixteenth of a mile In front of

FIRST MAT1M5K GOES OFF FIXK
Driving Club Has Beautiful lny snd
Oood Crowd.
No nrettler ilflv nmilri hsai Keen rhnsetl
forhe opening matinee of the Omaha Drlv- I
ing ciun man eaturaay, ana tne crowa mat
filled the grandstand and the carriages that
lined the qunrter stretch were more than
repaid by a good card of races. Mrs. C. H.
Crelghton had a tallyho full of friends, and
many elegant turnouts helped to make the
scene beautiful.
The Judges were F. Randolf, F. F. Conner
of Cleveland, A. Hood and John Bishop.
The timers were C. H. Crelghton and G. Q.
Irey. and the starter C. C. Kendall. The
busiest man on the grounds was Floyd
Campbell, who had his hands full in getting
the amateur drivers out on time, but ue
succeeded remarkably well and there were
few delays.
Many of the new horses showed up In
splendid shape and especially T. C. Byrne's
Cricket, who was a post entry In Class B
and who won In straight heats. In fact,
all of the first horses finished first In both
hents.
There was considerable Interest In the
running race. Three starters were sent
sway at the first trial and it looked like a
runaway for The Coon. Gray bolted as he
passed the stable gate and fell ten lengths
behind, which were made up on the back
stretch and It began to look as if there was
to be a real race for the finish, but Gray
had pulled the limit on his strength to
catch up the distanre and The Coon was
too strong coming down the back stretch.
The time of Chief of Detectives Dunn's
Coney of l:fl& was fast for this time of
the year and the horse promises to do some
good work before the season advances very
far.
Matinees will be held everv alternate R.t.

OLDFIELD AT FIREMEN'S TOUMBY
- i
Presence of the Great Rarer Brings
Affair Into Prominence.
Barney Oldfield s engagement at the
twenty-seventh annual tournament of the
Iowa State Firemen's association to be held
in Council Bluffs on June 6. 7, t and (, has
brought that event Into tremendous promi
nence during the last few weeks. In Itself
the firemen a tournament will be one of the
most Interesting occasions that will be
pulled off In this western country during

Iowa have always been events of real Im
portance, and the one this year promises to
eclipse anything of the kind ever held In the
siaie. i ne crack teams of the leading
cities of the state have been arriving In

driving park is already a scene of great ac
tivity. Everything has tieen placed In read
iness and accommodations have been pro
vided for one of the largest crowds that
has ever assembled In Council Bluffs. It
was thought when Barney Oldfield was en
gaged as an additional attraction that ev
erything had been done that could con
tribute to the entertainment and n(iv-mnt
of the visitors, but only a few days ago
me management entered into a contract
with Bogan'a Carnival company, which will
give shows nightly at a score of different
places in the principal thoroughfares of the
city. The carnival company comes fuljy
equipped with bands, free shows and special
attractions never before seen In the west.
Barney Oldfield. the world famous auto
mobilist, will arrive in Council Bluffs with
his Green Dragon on Wednesday morning.
He and his racing equipment will be take
to the driving park at once and prepar.
Hons will begin for what may prove to be
record-breaking run for the Green Dragon.
Omaha auiomobillets are looking forward
to the tournament with the highest antici
pation. Hundreds of automobile enthusi
asts will be present at the Oldfield races
and there Is reason to think that there will
be a tremendous outpouring of people from
Omaha and South Omaha. Toth at the Aft
